I can't send texts to an American cell number, but I can get texts from the target numbers just fine

So this probably has an obvious solution but nothing i've found is working, I've tried putting 011 and the country code, + and the country code, yet my girlfriend is not getting any of my texts even though hers deliver instantly

011 to send anything to the USA is just asking for problems and failure. Make sure you have 1 and the cell# as what your sending to.

 

  • What kind of phone are you trying to text from and is it on the Telus network? 
  • What app on the phone are you trying to text with?
  • What phone and app is she using?
